Five students from KS3 went to NewVic College to compete at their first Newham Dance Competition. All the students thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and behaved impeccably. Three students in Year 7 started Dance with Ms Burt in September. They were the only school in KS3 who competed with less than five Dancers, and were the youngest competitors. Holly Waite, Khelsea Welio and Kelilah Balogun peformed a piece inspired by International Women's Day and the film Barbie. These three students performed amazingly well. They achieved their goal of gaining experience on a large stage; performing in front of others and having fun. They achieved 4th Place! Two students in Year 9 were entered into a higher age level and competed in the KS4 category. Poppy Caton and Andreea-Rebeca Vilcu performed a duet they had been working on in Ms Burt's P.E lessons. The concept was 'an unseen force wiping out the nation.' These two students were phenomenal on stage and came away with 1st place, qualifying for the London Youth Games Final at the Copper Box Arena in July. Ms Burt, Teacher of Dance
